How to add criteria to a suitability model

SteveLynch

Once you’ve set your goal and chosen your criteria, you can start building your suitability model.

 

In the Suitability Modeler app, there are four different ways to add your criteria:   

 

1. Add Criteria Layers from the Contents Pane

• This is the most common method.
• Click the Dropdown Arrow icon in the Suitability pane to select criteria layers that are already listed in the Contents pane.

2. Browse to Criteria Raster Datasets

• Click the "+" icon on the Suitability pane.
• Browse to and select the criteria raster datasets stored on disk.

 

3. Use the Add Criterion Button

• On the Suitability Modeler ribbon, click the Add Criterion button to add new criteria.

4. On the Contents pane, Drag or Copy Raster Layers

• When the Suitability Modeler app is launched, a group layer is created in the Contents pane.
• You can add criteria to your model by dragging or copying raster layers from the Contents pane into this group layer.
